< Leviticus 23 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
2 Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: These are the feasts of the Lord, which you shall call holy.
-Pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo. W'a di yo pou mwen: Men jou pou nou mande pèp la pou li reyini pou fè fèt pou Seyè a. Men lè pou nou fè fèt pou mwen.
3 For six days you shall do work; the seventh day, because it is the rest of the Sabbath, shall be called holy. You shall do no work on that day; it is the Sabbath of the Lord in all your dwelling places.
Chak senmenn nou gen sis jou pou n' fè travay nou. Men, setyèm jou a se jou repo. Jou sa a, piga nou fè ankenn travay. Se jou n'a reyini pou n' fè sèvis pou Bondye. Jou repo a se pou Seyè a li ye. Nenpòt kote nou rete jou sa a, piga nou fè ankenn travay lakay nou.
4 Therefore, these are the feasts of the Lord, which you must celebrate in their times.
Men jou pou nou fè fèt pou Seyè a, jou pou nou mande pèp la pou li reyini pou fè fèt pou Seyè a. Men dat pou nou reyini pèp la pou fèt yo:
5 The first month, the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, is the Passover of the Lord.
N'a fete fèt Delivrans lan pou Seyè a chak lanne, nan katòzyèm jou premye mwa a. N'a konmanse fèt la lè solèy fin kouche.
6 And the fifteenth day of this month is the solemnity of the unleavened bread of the Lord. For seven days shall you eat unleavened bread.
Sou kenzyèm jou premye mwa a, n'a konmanse fèt pen san ledven yo. Pandan sèt jou, n'a manje pen ki fèt san ledven.
7 The first day shall be greatly honored and holy to you; you shall do no servile work in it.
Premye jou a, n'a reyini tout pèp la pou n' fè sèvis pou Bondye. Nou p'ap fè ankenn gwo travay jou sa a.
8 But you shall offer a sacrifice with fire, for seven days, to the Lord. Then the seventh day shall be more honored and more holy; and you shall do no servile work in it.
Pandan sèt jou n'a boule ofrann nan dife pou Seyè a. Sou setyèm jou a, n'a reyini tout pèp la ankò pou n' adore Seyè a. Jou sa a, nou p'ap fè ankenn gwo travay non plis.
9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
10 Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: When you will have entered into the land which I will give to you, and you will have harvested your grain fields, you shall carry the sheaves of grain, the first-fruits of your harvest, to the priest.
-Pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Men sa pou ou di yo. Lè n'a antre nan peyi m'ap ban nou an, lè n'a fin ranmase premye rekòt grenn nan jaden nou, n'a pran premye makout la, n'a pote l' bay prèt la.
11 He shall lift up a sheaf before the Lord, on the day after the Sabbath, so that it may be acceptable for you, and he shall sanctify it.
Prèt la va balanse l' devan Seyè a tankou yon ofrann espesyal, pou Seyè a ka asepte resevwa nou. Prèt la va fè ofrann lan jou ki vini apre jou repo a.
12 And on the same day that the sheaf is consecrated, a one-year-old immaculate lamb shall be slain as a holocaust of the Lord.
Jou n'ap fè ofrann premye makout rekòt la, n'a pran yon ti belye ki pa gen ankenn enfimite epi ki poko gen ennan, n'a boule l' nèt pou Seyè a.
13 And the libations shall be offered with it: two-tenths of fine wheat flour sprinkled with oil, as an incense and a most sweet odor for the Lord; likewise, libations of wine, the fourth part of a hin.
N'a ofri ansanm avè l' tou katòz ti mamit farin frans melanje ak lwil oliv pou nou boule nan dife pou Seyè a. Bon sant ofrann lan va fè Seyè a plezi. N'a ofri tou yon boutèy ka diven pou yo vide pou Seyè a.
14 Bread, and parched grain, and boiled grain, you shall not eat from the grain field, until the day when you shall offer from it to your God. It is an everlasting precept in your generations and in all of your dwelling places.
Piga nou pran nan grenn nou fèk rekòlte yo ni pou nou manje kri, ni pou nou griye, ni pou nou fè pen, toutotan nou pa pote ofrann premye grenn yo bay Seyè a. Se va yon regleman pou nou swiv tout tan, de pitit an pitit, kote nou pase.
15 Therefore, you shall number from the day after the Sabbath, in which you offered a sheaf of the first-fruits, seven full weeks,
N'a konte sèt semèn antye, depi jou nou te pote premye makout rekòt la ofri bay Seyè a, apre jou repo a.
16 all the way to the day after the completion of the seventh week, that is, fifty days, and then you shall offer a new sacrifice to the Lord,
Wi, n'a konte senkant jou. Sa va mennen nou sou jou ki vini apre setyèm jou repo a. N'a fè yon lòt ofrann grenn jaden bay Seyè a.
17 from all of your dwelling places: two loaves from the first-fruits, from two-tenths of leavened fine wheat flour, which you shall bake as the first-fruits of the Lord.
Chak fanmi va soti lakay yo ak de gwo pen pou yo ofri bay Seyè a. Chak pen va fèt ak de liv farin kwit ak ledven. Y'a ofri yo bay Seyè a tankou ofrann premye grenn yo rekòlte.
18 And you shall offer with the bread: seven immaculate one-year-old lambs, and one calf from the herd, and two rams, and these shall be a holocaust, with their libations, as a most sweet odor to the Lord.
Ansanm ak pen yo, pèp la va ofri sèt ti mouton ki poko gen ennan, yon jenn ti towo bèf ak de belye. Fòk tout bèt sa yo pa gen ankenn enfimite. Y'a boule yo nèt nan dife pou Seyè a, ansanm ak ofrann grenn jaden yo ak ofrann diven an. Bon sant ofrann sa a va fè Seyè a plezi.
19 You shall also offer a he-goat for sin, and two one-year-old lambs as victims of peace offerings.
N'a touye tou yon bouk ki va sèvi ofrann pou peye pou tou sa nou fè ki mal, ak de ti mouton ki poko gen ennan ki va sèvi ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi.
20 And when the priest has lifted them up with the loaves of the first-fruits, in the sight of the Lord, they shall fall to his use.
Prèt la va balanse pen yo ansanm ak de ti mouton yo tankou yon ofrann espesyal devan Seyè a. Ofrann sa yo se bagay ki apa nèt pou Seyè a. Se pou prèt yo yo ye.
21 And you shall call this day most honored and most holy; you shall do no servile work in it. It shall be an everlasting ordinance in all your dwelling places and generations.
Jou sa a, n'a reyini pèp la pou l' adore Bondye. Pesonn p'ap fè gwo travay. Sa se regleman pou nou swiv tout tan, de pitit an pitit, kote nou pase.
22 And when you will have harvested the grain fields of your land, you shall not cut it down all the way to the ground; neither shall you gather the remnants of the ears of grain, but you shall leave these for paupers and strangers. I am the Lord your God.
Lè n'ap fè rekòt nan jaden nou, se pa pou nou ranmase grenn ki toupre lizyè jaden an, ni nou pa bezwen tounen dèyè pou ranmase grenn ki te tonbe atè. W'a kite yo pou moun peyi a ki pa genyen ak pou moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
24 Say to the sons of Israel: The seventh month, the first day of the month, shall be a Sabbath for you, a memorial, with the sounding of trumpets, and it shall be called holy.
-Pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Men sa pou ou di yo: Premye jou setyèm mwa a va yon gwo jou repo pou nou. Jou sa a n'a kònen twonpèt pou fè moun yo chonje se jou pou yo reyini pou adore Bondye.
25 You shall do no servile work in it, and you shall offer a holocaust to the Lord.
Piga nou fè gwo travay. N'a fè ofrann pou yo boule nan dife pou Seyè a.
26 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l':
27 The tenth day of this seventh month shall be the day of atonement; it shall be most honored, and it shall be called holy. And you shall afflict your souls on that day, and you shall offer a holocaust to the Lord.
-Dizyèm jou sètyèm mwa sa a, se gran jou padon an li ye. N'a reyini tout moun pou n' adore Bondye. N'a fè jèn epi n'a fè ofrann pou yo boule nan dife devan Seyè a.
28 You shall do no servile work in the time of this day; for it is a day of propitiation, so that the Lord your God may be merciful to you.
Jou sa a, nou p'ap travay menm, paske se gran jou padon an, jou pou nou fè sèvis pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pou nou mande l' fè nou gras.
29 Every soul that has not been afflicted on this day shall perish from his people,
Si yon moun mete anyen nan bouch li jou sa a, y'ap wete l' nan mitan pèp li a.
30 and anyone who will have done work, I shall wipe him away from his people.
Si yon moun travay jou sa a, se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap touye l'.
31 Therefore, you shall do no work on that day. This shall be an everlasting ordinance for you in all your generations and dwelling places.
Nou pa pou fè anyen jou sa a. Sa se regleman pou nou swiv tout tan, de pitit an pitit, kote nou pase.
32 It is a Sabbath of rest, and you shall afflict your souls beginning on the ninth day of the month: from evening until evening you shall celebrate your Sabbaths.
Se va yon gwo jou repo, jou nou p'ap fè ankenn travay. Depi lè solèy kouche nan nevyèm jou mwa a jouk lè li kouche ankò dizyèm jou a, n'a rete san manje.
33 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l':
34 Say to the sons of Israel: From the fifteenth day of this seventh month, there shall be the Feast of Tabernacles: seven days for the Lord.
-Pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo, w'a di yo konsa: N'a fete fèt joupa yo pandan sèt jou. N'a konmanse sou kenzyèm jou setyèm mwa a.
35 The first day shall be called most honored and most holy; you shall do no servile work in it.
Premye jou a, n'a reyini tout moun pou adore Bondye. Pesonn p'ap fè gwo travay jou sa a.
36 And for seven days you shall offer holocausts to the Lord. Likewise, the eighth day shall be most honored and most holy, and you shall offer holocausts to the Lord. For it is the day of assembly and gathering. You shall do no servile work in it.
Chak jou, pandan sèt jou, n'a boule ofrann nan dife pou Seyè a. Sou wityèm jou a, n'a reyini moun yo ankò pou adore Bondye, epi n'a boule ofrann nan dife pou Seyè a. Se va yon jou pou adore Bondye. Jou sa a, piga nou fè gwo travay.
37 These are the feasts of the Lord, which you shall call most honored and most holy, and in them you shall offer oblations to the Lord: holocausts and libations according to the rite of each particular day,
Men fèt pou nou fete pou Seyè a. Men jou n'a reyini tout moun pou yo fè sèvis pou Bondye. Men ofrann pou nou boule nan dife pou Seyè a, se ka bèt pou nou boule nèt, se ka ofrann grenn jaden, se ka bèt pou nou touye, se ka ofrann diven. Chak jou fèt gen ofrann pa li.
38 aside from the Sabbaths of the Lord, and your donations, and that which you offer by a vow, or which you give to the Lord spontaneously.
Apa tout jou repo Seyè yo, n'a fete fèt sa yo tou. Apa kado pou nou fè nòmalman, apa ofrann n'ap fè paske nou te fè ve, apa ofrann n'ap fè pou Seyè a paske nou te vle fè l', n'a fè ofrann sa yo.
39 Therefore, from the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you will have gathered together all the fruits of your land, you shall celebrate the feast of the Lord for seven days. The first day and the eighth day shall be a Sabbath, that is, a day of rest.
Sou kenzyèm jou setyèm mwa a, n'a fè fèt pou Seyè a pandan sèt jou, apre n'a fin rekòlte jaden nou yo. Premye jou a ak wityèm jou a va de gwo jou repo.
40 And you shall take for yourselves, on the first day, the fruits of the most beautiful tree, and branches of palm trees, and branches of trees with thick foliage, and willows from the torrent. And you shall rejoice in the sight of the Lord your God.
Premye jou a, n'a keyi pi bon fwi nan pye sitwon nou yo, n'a koupe fèy nan pye dat nou yo ak branch nan pye jasmen ak pye sikren, n'a fè kè nou kontan devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pandan sèt jou.
41 And you shall celebrate its solemnity for seven days each year. This shall be an everlasting ordinance in your generations. In the seventh month, you shall celebrate the feast,
Chak lanne, pandan sèt jou nan setyèm mwa a, n'a fete fèt sa a pou mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Sa se yon regleman pou nou swiv tout tan, de pitit an pitit.
42 and you shall live under shelters for seven days. All who are of the family of Israel shall dwell in tabernacles,
Pandan sèt jou tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo va rete anba joupa. Wi, n'a rete anba joupa pandan sèt jou.
43 so that your posterity may learn that I caused the sons of Israel to live in tabernacles, when I led them away from the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.
Konsa, pitit pitit nou yo va konnen mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen te fè pèp Izrayèl rete anba joupa lè mwen te fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip la. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
44 And Moses spoke about the solemnities of the Lord to the sons of Israel.
Se konsa Moyiz te bay moun pèp Izrayèl yo tout kalite fèt pou yo fete pou Seyè a.
